The Company

At Monzo we’re building a new kind of bank, built for your smartphone.
The company, founded in early 2015, now has over 110 employees based
in our Old Street office. In August 2016 we officially became a
regulated bank and will be launching current accounts in a matter of months.

Over 250,000 people in the UK are using the Monzo app as part of our Beta,

"pp-only startup bank Monzo has attracted enough initial interest in its £2.5 million ($3.1 million) crowdfunding campaign to fill it close to three times over, after less than 24 hours of pre-registration."

"The travelling benefits alone will be enough for some people to get one alone. For others, the current
pre-paid card could be used as a very modern way of giving kids pocket money or simply limiting your own
spending if you're prone to getting carried away.”

"The bank, built around a mobile phone app, will focus on current accounts and digital services, interacting
with customers by sending notifications and providing instant balance updates - rather than through high
street branches.”

"London-based challenger bank Mondo has received a restricted UK banking license. UK financial regulators
granted their approval approximately 18 months after the company was first founded in early 2015.”

“Digital challenger Mondo, a smartphone-only app, has been granted a banking licence which gives it free-reign
to offer customers the full range of services offered by the traditional high street banks.”

“At the moment Mondo only offers prepaid debit cards that can be topped up at cash
machines and online, but it hopes to get a full banking licence later this year.
This will enable it to offer standing order, direct debit and faster payments features.”
